Senator Strom Thurmond of South Carolina has received a high rat ing of 95 pe rcent for his voting record during the Second Session of the 88th Congress by Americans for Constitutional Action. As a result, he received the ACA'S 3rd Biennial Distinguished Service Award at a reception held in the Nation’s Capital. Senator Thurmond, of Aiken, according to ACA, has voted dur ing 1964 to uphold the Constitu tion of the United States and has opposed appeasement of Commun ists abroad and the trend to ward Socialism at home through centralization of power in a mam moth bureaucracy in Washington, D. C. ACA has gained national atten tion by its non-partisan role of total dedication to the support and preservation of constitutional government. Among the 27 mem bers of its Board of Trustees are Charles Edison, former Democra tic Governor of New Jersey; and Edgar Eisenhower. Senator Thurmond, now in his 2nd term and a member of the Banking and Currency and the Armed Services Committee, was cited by ACA as a “courageous legislator dedicated to individual freedom and liberty t,he private enterprise system, and preserving the inherent American heritage for our children.” The ACA rating is derived from an analysis and a statistical eval uation of the voting records of the Congressmen on issues which, in ACA’s opinion, have a significant bearing on preserving the spirit and principles of the Constitution as defined by the Republic’s Poun ding fathers. In its analysis, ACA uses issues which affect those as pects of the social, economic and political system. Hamm dies after short illness PROSPERITY. — J. D.
